Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.125 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives (optional, chopped)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper, then whisk vigorously until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over low to medium-low heat and melt the butter, swirling it around to evenly coat the pan.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and allow it to sit for 10-15 seconds without stirring to begin setting.
Using a soft spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges of the skillet toward the center, allowing uncooked eggs to flow to the exposed pan. Continue this process, working in slow, gentle movements.
Remove the skillet from the heat when the eggs are still slightly soft and glossy, as they will continue cooking with residual heat.
Serve immediately, garnished with freshly chopped chives if desired.
